Miller: Strong climate action critical to Oregon business leadership
Tim Miller, Portland Tribune, December 9, 2021
Tim Miller is director of Oregon Business for Climate, a league of Oregon businesses advocating for ambitious, equitable, effective climate policies and programs.
Savvy Oregon businesses plan for their operating and regulatory environment, and want clarity wherever possible. They see that climate change is a huge piece of that context.
Along with visible impacts here in Oregon, the global financial sector’s announcements make the business context clear — with $130 trillion (40% of the world’s capital) aligned in addressing climate change. The recent COP26 global summit, referred to as “the business COP” by many, demonstrated both the mounting urgency of the challenge, and the difficulty of moving resistant players toward real action.
